It’s not all about your talent. This is all you need to do so your work gets seen.
The following material is an excerpt from the No Film School How to Make Money as a Cinematographer course.
The art of cinematography is more than just angles and framing that excite you. Sure, you can be a weekend warrior who shoots short films and has the best photos on your Instagram, but if you want to build a career as a cinematographer, you need to master more than the camera.
What you need is persistence, consistency, and exposure. That whole heap of talent may not matter as much as you think if your wonderful work never gets seen.
It seems counterintuitive, but the way to sustain a career is not just shooting amazing work. You have to build a brand that makes you seem reliable, hardworking, and talented.
But how can you make that all feel tangible and not like a bunch of buzzwords? Let’s get into some strategy for you.
